大学英语四级考试听力原文附音频11:M: As you can see from the drawings, the kitchen has one door into the dining room, another into the family room and a third to the outside.W: The door into the family room isn't big enough. Could it be made wider?Q: What are the speakers doing?12.M: I'm thinking about where to go for a bite tonight. Any suggestions, Barbara?W: Well, how about the French restaurant near the KFC? Frankly, I've had enough of our canteen food.Q: What do we learn about the woman?13.W: Hey, if you can't enjoy the music at a sensible volume, why not use earphones? I'm preparing for the speech contest.M: Oh, sorry. I didn't realize I've being bothering you all this time.Q: What is the man probably doing?14.M: Finally, I've got the chance to put on my new suit tonight. I hope to make a good impression on your family.W: Come on! It's only a family reunion. So jeans and T-shirts are just fine.Q: What does the woman mean?15.M: Would you like to see those pants in brown and navy blue? These two colors are coming in this season.W: Oh, actually grey is my favorite color, but I prefer something made from cotton, 100% cotton I mean.Q: What is the woman looking for?16.W: From here, the mountains look as if you could just reach out and touch them.M: That's why I chose this lodge. It has one of the best viewsin Switzerland.Q: What is the man's chief consideration in choosing the lodge?17.M: What do I have to do to apply for a passport?W: You need proof of citizenship, either an old passport or a birth certificate and three photographs. Then you must complete this form and pay a fee.Q: What is the man most probably going to do?18.M: Miss, can I interest you in a pork special with serving tonight? It's only 799, half the usual price and it's very tasty.W: Oh really? I will try it.Q: What does the man say about the dish?Conversation 1W:Good evening, and welcome to this week's Business World, the program for and about business people. Tonight, we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I'll do it. I had my heart set on it and I didn't let anything stand in my way. When I went down tothe bank and got a business loan, I knew I'd love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.W: You mean you don't keep regular hours?M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and takeoff early.W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It's great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business.Question 19-22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19.What is the woman doing?20.What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop?21.Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?22.What do we learn about the people working in the shop?Conversation 2W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.M: Yes, but I'm not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that?W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant, butsteel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it's still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain's machine tools are from the Basque Country. As for paper processing, there's still a little. But it's no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?M: Yes, thanks.W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there's a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there used to be transport problems, now though there are new train links and better roads, but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we'll see this in more detail, so we'll come back to this question, OK?M: OK, right.W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it's very good and improving.Question 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. What does the woman say about the steel-related manufacturing in the region?24. What problem hinders the region's development?25. What will the speakers discuss later?短文:Passage 1I first met Joe Ganz when we were both nine years old, which is probably the only reason he's one of my best friends. If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high school we wouldn't even have had the chance to get to know each other. Joe is a day student, but I am a boarding student. We haven't been in same classes, sports or extra-curricular activities. Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house and we talk on the phone every night. This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our freshman year. Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know each other due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests. In fact, to be honest, I struggle even now to think of things we have in common. But maybe that's what makes usenjoy each other's company so much. When I look at my friendship with Joe, I wonder how many people I've known whom I never disliked, but simply didn't take the time to get to know. Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is for the social divisionsthat exist in every community. Since this realization, I have begun to make an even more determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places.Q:26: Why does the speaker say Joe Ganz became one of his best friends?27: Where does the speaker spend most of his weekends?28: What has the speaker learned from his friendship with Joe?Passage 2It was a bad night for Lewis. His research in the neighboring town has taken longer than he expected. It was late and he was very tired when he drove home. He turned into his building's parking lot, but all the spaces were full. He drove back out onto the street, looking for a parking space. The first block was full. The next block was almost empty. Lewis didn't see a “no parking” sign, but he has expected that his parking were allowed there. Most the spaces would be filled. Then he saw a small parking lot with two free spaces. He was so glad to see them that he didn't even think to read the sign by the entrance. He drove in, parked and hurried home to go to bed. The next morning he went back to the lot to get his car. It was gone. He ran home and telephoned the city police to say that his car had been stolen. It took the police only a minute to tell him what had happened: his car had been on a private lot. It had been taken away by the police. Lewis had to take a taxi to visit the city garage far from the city center. He had to pay a fee of 40 dollars to get his car back. In addition, he got a parking ticket, his first one ever in Greenville.Q:29: Where did Lewis intend to park his car when he came back from work one night?30: What did Lewis think had happened to his car the next morning?31: Where did Lewis finally get his car back?Passage 3Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe we agreed that creativity is a mysterious idea. It was those things we all recognize when we see it, but we don't really understand what it is. We seem to feel that some people are naturally creative, but we don't know how they got that way. Is creativity a natural gift like good looks, or is it something that can be acquired like knowledge? Perhaps if we analyze the creative process carefully, we might get some insight into what it is and how it might work in our lives. The creative process has always been accepted as the source of all important work in the arts, but we should not think the creativity plays a role only in the arts. Every major scientific discovery began with someone imagining the world to look differently from the way others saw it. And this is what creativity is all about -- imagining the world in a new way. And despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations, we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolutely new way. In fact, you are born with it. It is your birth right as a human being. And what's more, you use it every day, almost every moment of your life. Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences. It's your creative mind that gets meaning from chaos of experiences and brings order to your world.32. What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?33. What is the widely accepted idea about the creative process?34. What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?35. What does the speaker imply about the creative process?复合式听写:Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property. Radios, cell phones, bicycles, pocket 36calculators and books have all been reported stolen. Are there enough campus police to do the job? There are twenty officers in the campus security division. Their job is to 37 handle crime, accidents, lost-and-found 38items and traffic problems on campus. More than half oftheir time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets. 39Responding promptly to accidents and other 40 emergenciesis important, but it is their smallest job. Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time. Very 41 rarely do any violent crimes actually occur. In the last five years. There have been no42 murders, seven robberies and about 60 other violent attacks, most of these involving fights at parties. On the other hand, 43there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property, which usually involves breaking windows or lights or writing on walls. The thefts are not the carefully plannedburglaries that you see in movies. 44Things get stolen when it's easy to steal them, because they are left lying around unwatched. Do we really need more police? Hiring more campus police will cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again.45 A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.。

They may commit suicide.28.A. Rats can populate rapidly.B. Population explosion can lead to violence.C. Overcrowdedness may have the same effects on man.D. It is a natural law that animals live and die.答案解析:Section BPassage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that [26]the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior pattern and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. [27]The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? [28]Is adequate space not only desirable, but essential for human survival?Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What affects rats' behavior?正确答案:C解析:听到“最近研究表明:鼠类行为受空间影响颇大”,可判断C(空间)正确。

下面是店铺给大家整理的大学英语四级听力练习及答案解析,供大家参阅!大学英语四级听力练习及答案解析听力真题:Passage Three32.A. It takes skill.B. It pays well.C. It's a full-time job.D. It's admired worldwide.33.A. A mother with a baby in her arms.B. A woman whose bag is hanging in front.C. A lone female with a handbag at her right side.D. An old lady carrying a handbag on the left.34.A. The back pocket of his tight trousers.B. The top pocket of his jacket.C. A side pocket of his jacket.D. A side pocket of his trousers.35.A. Theater lobbies with uniformed security guards.B. Clothing stores where people are relaxed and off-guard.C. Airports where people carry a lot of luggage.D. Hotels and restaurants in southeast London.答案解析:Passage ThreeFor twenty-five years, I was a full-time thief, specializing inpicking pockets. Where I come from in southeast London, that's an honorable profession. [32]Anyone can break in a house and steal things, but picking somebody's pocket takes skill. My sister and I were among the most successful pickpocket teams in London. We worked in hotel and theatre lobbies, airports, shopping centers and restaurants. Now we don't steal any more, but this crime is worldwide. Here's how to protect yourself. Professional pickpockets do not see victims-only handbags, jewels and money. [33]Mothers with babies, the elderly, and the disabled are all fair game. My preferred target was the lone female, handbag at her side-the right side to be exact. So if I'm next to her, I can reach it cautiously with my right hand across my body. Only about one woman in a thousand carries her bag on the left, and I tended to steer clear of them. Women whose bags are hanging in front of them are tricky for the pickpocket as there isn't a blind side. If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with handles rather than a strap. [34]For men, one of the best places to keep a wallet is in the back pocket of tight trousers.You'll feel any attempts to move it. Another good place is in the buttoned-up inside pocket of a jacket. There is just no way in. Even better, keep wallets attached to a cord or chain that is fastened to a belt. [35]A pickpocket needs targets who are relaxed and off-guard. The perfect setting is a clothing store. When customers wander among the racks they are completely absorbed in the items they hold up. The presence of a uniformed security guard is even better. A false sense of security makes a pickpocket's job much simpler.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. Why does the speaker say that picking somebody'spocket is an honorable profession in southeast London?正确答案:A解析:题目询问为什么作者说在伦敦东南部,扒窃是一个光荣的职业。

No? But did that stop you buying another lottery ticket? If the answer is another "no", you might call yourself an optimist.But according to researchers at University College London, human beings are naturally hopeful creatures. It is all in the brain, they say. A study suggests it is very efficient at processing good news: about 80% of people have a tendency to see the glass as half-full, not half-empty, even if theydon't consider themselves to be optimists. The good news is that this brings a health benefit. Being upbeat and having a positive outlook on life reduces anxiety. A study of nearly 100,000 women showed a lower risk of death from heart disease amongst optimists.But it's not always good to be optimistic. The authors of the study point out the 2008 financial crisis may have been caused by analysts overestimating their assets' performance even in the face of clear evidence to the contrary. There are personal health risks too. Dr. Tali Sharot, lead researcher, said: '"Smoking Kills' messages don't work because people think their chances of having cancer are low. There's a very fundamental bias in the brain.” But, as they say, every cloud has a silver lining. Even if seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses poses a risk to our health, we've not going to skip sleeping.Let's just keep our chins up and keep smiling!23. What did researchers at University College London recently find?24. What do the researchers mention the 2008 financial crisis for?25. What does the speaker suggest people do?短文三你中过彩票吗?没有?但是这阻止你继续买彩票了吗?如果答案是否定的,那你或许应该称呼自己是乐天派。

Maybe I should call to check on it.W: Don"t worry. It takes at least a week to arrive.Q: What does the woman think the man should do?[解析] 本题为建议意见类型题。

从选项中的关键词order,check,furniture可推断对话与购买的家具有关。

对话中男士说自己订购的家具还没到,想打电话查一下,女士让男士别担心,说运送至少需要一周的时间,由此可推知,女士的意思是男士应该耐心地等待。

因此,正确答案应选C。

A.He quit teaching in June. √B.He has left the army recently.C.He opened a restaurant near the school.D.He has taken over his brother"s business.解析:[听力原文]W: Are you still teaching at the junior high school?M: Not since June. My brother and I opened a restaurant as soon as he got out of the army. Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?[解析] 本题为主题信息类型题。

四个选项的主语都是he,听时应重点关注男士的相关信息。

从对话中得知,男士以前在初中担任教师,后来和哥哥一同开了餐厅。

因此,正确答案应选A。

A.It"s awfully dull. √B.It"s really exciting.C.It"s very exhausting.D.It"s quite challenging.解析:[听力原文]M: Wouldn"t you get bored with the same routine year teaching the same things to children? W: I don"t think it would be as boring as working in an office. Teaching is most stimulating. Q: What does the woman imply about office work?[解析] 本题为判断推理类型题。

四个选项都是形容词,可推断考核的是对于某事物的认识。

对话中男士问女士每年都教孩子同样的东西,会不会感到厌烦,女士回答没有办公室工作无聊,并说教学是很振奋的事情。

由此可知,女士认为真正无聊的是办公室工作,认为办公室工作极其单调乏味。

因此,正确答案应选A。

Please let everybody know that whoever wants to, may attend the funeral. Q: What are the speakers talking about?[解析] 本题为主题信息类型题。

选项中提到了第三人Smith,可推测题目与其有关。

从对话中得知,二人在谈论Smith去世的事情,tragic为混淆项,从对话中可知Smith是在睡梦中去世的,故排除。

而且男士也提到了关键词sad,这是一个让人伤心的事情。

因此,正确答案应选A。

A.The woman is a close friend of the man.B.The woman has been working too hard.C.The woman is seeing a doctor. √D.The woman is tired of her work.解析:[听力原文]M: Hello, Mrs. White, what can I do for you?W: I don"t know what"s the matter with me? I"m always feeling tired, I"m usually worn out at the end of the day.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?[解析] 本题为主题信息类型题。

四个选项都是在描述女士的一些信息或行为。

从对话的开头称呼和what can I do for you可以排除A项。

对话中从女士说不知道自己有什么问题,总是觉得很累,每天都精疲力尽来看,女士是在向医生讲述自己的情况,可知女子正在看医生,因此,正确答案应选C。

(分数:6.00)A.He is an experienced human resource manager.B.He is being interviewed for a job. √C.He is a close friend of the woman.D.He is good at answering tricky questions.解析:[听力原文]W: Now one more question if you don"t mind, what position in the company appeals to you most? M: Well, I"d like the position of sales manager if that position is still vacant.Q: What do we learn about the man?[解析] 本题为主题信息类型题。

选项中有三项都和面试有关,出现了interview,experienced和tricky question这样的词汇。

从对话一开始的“Now one more question if you don"t mind...”即可排除两人是朋友这个选项。

对话中女士询问男士他最想要做什么工作,男士回答最想做的是销售经理。

显然,男士正在面试中,而他回答的这个问题很简单,因此,正确答案应选B。

对话中男士说他是teaching assistant(助教),即协助教授教学。

A,他需要另一份研究助理的工作;B,他请威廉斯教授协助,对话中是男子协助威廉斯教授;D,他正在和威廉斯教授一起做研究,对话中男子是助教,并没有在做研究,皆与对话内容不符,排除。

因此,正确答案应选C。
